I've noticed this before but it isn't until now that it started bugging me.
Why aren't we allowed to have more serious topics? It seems politics, religion and other similar issues aren't allowed to be discussed. The religion thread in Off Topic was a perfectly civil, intersting and overall enriching thread where we can learn about our fellow members, yet it was closed on principal.
I understand wanting to avoid flaming and such, but that thread had no problems at all, if someone had started talking down on someone elses religion, then sure I understand if it had been closed, yet this had nothing.
And if it's an issue of not being about the warriors (Fox mentioned something related) then why do we even have other forums?
I just think we could all enjoy an interesting thread like that one, or political debates, and they don't have to become anything bad unless you make it bad.
